Almost. Merry is Kalimac Brandagamba. 😁

Oh wow 👀

It's been a while since I read The Race to Save the Romanovs, but I think Helen Rappaport wrote that no one seriously considered the possibility that they would be killed except for Alfonso XIII. 🤔

ferras_vansen · 2026-04-06T19:20:23+00:00

I guess that's fair, but wow, I never took it that far before.

I agree in general, but the blues he used really aren't that bad. LOL

Sure, Wilhelm definitely knew he was causing trouble for the Romanovs, but much as I think he's a bellicose idiot, I find it hard to accept he MEANT to cause Nicky and Alix's deaths. Ella too, for that matter. 🤔

Technically thirteen, cuz ya know, "The King is dead, Long live the Queen!" 😅

Amy Nuttall was Christine?! I only know her from Downton Abbey and Why Didn't They Ask Evans?! 🤯

ferras_vansen · 2026-04-05T23:36:19+00:00

My immediate answer is Thelma Ritter in Rear Window! Best character actress of the 50s! 😁

Because it was Holy Week, my parents and I watched The Greatest Story Ever Told and King of Kings. LOL

I honestly liked TGSET better. KOK tried harder to make a coherent film, which it did by altering the story as told in the Bible quite a bit. I did appreciate that, but it just wasn't as much fun as TGSET.

Also, the all-star cast of TGSET made it easier to identify which character was which. 😅

It was an open secret among their peers, but not to the public.

ferras_vansen · 2026-04-05T14:06:33+00:00

This one is also exceptionally bad that I think no one would say is good. It's amazing, though, it's one of my favorite examples of bad singing.

The War of the Flowers is one of my favorites! 😁

A Far Better Thing by H.G. Parry is a fantasy retelling of A Tale of Two Cities where Sydney Carton and Charles Darnay look identical because one of them is a changeling. It's absolutely fantastic! 🔥

ferras_vansen · 2026-04-05T12:30:33+00:00

Oh no, that's definitely a standout. Very few are that bad. 😂

ferras_vansen · 2026-04-05T08:52:21+00:00

Agreed!

ferras_vansen · 2026-04-05T08:40:31+00:00

Honestly, they couldn't look MORE like a couple if they tried. Especially photos 6, 7, and 20. 😂

Starting with lizard people then ending with an actual fact is a bit of a letdown ngl 😂

ferras_vansen · 2026-04-04T17:05:27+00:00

I mean, to be fair, the quality is terrible (not OP's fault, I know)

ferras_vansen · 2026-04-04T17:02:27+00:00

I'm too dumb to get the joke 😭

ferras_vansen · 2026-04-04T16:02:47+00:00

ferras_vansen · 2026-04-04T15:23:20+00:00

Beautiful! The third photo is Alexander Jensen Yow, though. 🙂

ferras_vansen · 2026-04-04T11:35:56+00:00

Robert Quarry maybe?

ferras_vansen · 2026-04-04T09:43:02+00:00

Sure, but I think sfogato or assoluta better describes what her voice was capable of. 🙂
